David Fletcher (2B/3B/SS/OF, LAA) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of All Leagues ANALYSIS: Coming into 2019, David Fletcher was only on the radar in the deepest of leagues. With a high-contact, low-power profile, Fletcher produced little of consequence in 2018; posting a triple-slash of .275/.316/.363 with an .088 ISO and a.297 wOBA that produced […]
Luis Arraez Optioned
Minnesota Twins infielder Luis Arraez was reportedly optioned to Triple-A Rochester on Sunday, with a corresponding move to be announced Tuesday. Arraez was hitting .375/.467/.583 in 30 plate appearances over 10 games in his first taste of MLB action. However, the Twins lineup is surprisingly loaded, leaving little room for Arraez to break in. He […]
Dee Gordon, Ryon Healy Both Hit In Cage
Seattle Mariners infielders Dee Gordon and Ryon Healy both hit in the batting cage on Sunday as they work their way back from the IL. Gordon has been sidelined with a wrist injury since May 9 while Healy has been out of action since May 21 with a back injury. The team is hoping the […]
Garrett Hampson Recalled From Triple-A
The Colorado Rockies have recalled second baseman Garrett Hampson from Triple-A prior to Sunday's tilt versus the Blue Jays. The 24-year-old has struggled in sporadic playing time with the big league club this year hitting just .194 with one homer and one stolen base. There doesn't appear to be much room for consistent playing time […]
Yoan Moncada Out With Leg Soreness
Chicago White Sox infielder Yoan Moncada has been scratched from Sunday's lineup with what manager Rick Renteria is calling "leg soreness." The injury doesn't appear to be serious, and the club is likely taking a precautionary measure with their young star bat. Moncada is amidst a breakout year after much-awaited anticipation. He's batting .283 with […]

2019 MLB Amateur Draft Preview
The 2019 Amateur Draft is upon us, and owners are either more excited to get more prospects or to finally get away from the creepy MLB Network nursery ad. While there is still some time for changes in terms of how the draft plays out, there are a few trends that owners should be looking […]
Luis Urias (2B, SD) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of leagues ANALYSIS: In 72 AB at the MLB level, consensus top-30 prospect Luis Urias has been slow to accelerate with just two home runs and a steal to go with a less-than pedestrian .167/.256/.278 slash. That would definitely be a bummer, that is if he wasn't […]
The Cut List (Week 10) - Time to Let Go?
Welcome to June, and to something a little different this week, although it may end up a one-week affair. Today we suggest a couple cuts each at varying league sizes: 10, 12, and 14-15 teams. Recommendations in one league size obviously apply to smaller leagues. You can also feel free to drop a shallower suggestion […]

Ian Kinsler Goes Yard Friday
San Diego Padres second baseman Ian Kinsler went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Friday against the Miami Marlins. The dinger was the veteran’s seventh of the season to go along with 31 runs-plus-RBI. Since creating controversy on May 16 by cursing out the Friars home crowd, Kinsler has lifted his OPS from .574 to […]

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 10
May is coming to an end, but luckily, buy and sell windows are still open on a certain set of players discussed in today's piece. There is nothing worse than seeing one of your guys underperform, but if that is the case, eight times out-of-ten it is most prudent to hold on until they at […]
Points Leagues Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 10
Welcome to the RotoBaller waiver wire column which falls in-line with most fantasy “who should I pick up?” articles with a skew towards points leagues. Yes, there is positive correlation to standard 5x5 scoring but in our format, specific categories matter less and the accumulation of total stats is the ultimate objective. For Week 10, […]

So we're two months into the season, and a lot of pictures are becoming more clear. Maybe you hitched your wagon to Joey Votto and are in need of a corner infielder?

Jose Ramirez Hits .245 In May, Now Hitting .213 On Season
Cleveland Indians second baseman Jose Ramirez followed up his atrocious month of April with a slightly less atrocious May. The consensus top-10 pick going into the year now has just four home runs and 17 RBI through 56 games. Despite his struggles, there is still a good amount to like about his peripheral numbers. He […]
Brendan Rodgers is Out on Friday
Colorado Rockies infielder Brendan Rodgers (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Rodgers is hitting .303/.361/.364 since being called up, so he's not sitting out due to poor performance. Manager Bud Black feels that Ryan McMahon is a better option for Friday's contest. McMahon will bat sixth […]
Justin Smoak Out, Cavan Biggio Returns
Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Justin Smoak is out of the lineup on Friday with no designated hitter in a National League park. Second baseman Cavan Biggio (illness) returns after missing two games and will hit sixth against Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez. Rowdy Tellez is at first and is batting third at Coors Field. […]
Derek Dietrich Sitting Out Friday
Cincinnati Reds second baseman/outfielder Derek Dietrich is getting the day off Friday. After never hitting more than 16 home runs in a season, Dietrich has been an absolute revelation for the Reds so far, already surpassing his career high in home runs through only 53 games. It hasn't been all smooth sailing, though, as all […]
Josh Harrison, Jordy Mercer To See Specialist Monday
Detroit Tigers second baseman Josh Harrison (hamstring) and shortstop Jordy Mercer (quadriceps) will both head to Dallas on Monday to visit with Dr. Daniel E. Cooper. Mercer was getting close to a return but suffered a setback on his rehab assignment this week. There is no timetable for either player's return at this point. Fantasy […]
Scooter Gennett Taking Batting Practice, Ground Balls
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Scooter Gennett (groin) is taking batting practice and ground balls on Friday. Gennett has been out all season long and will likely need a lengthy rehab assignment before returning, so he's not exactly close to a return yet. The 29-year-old has hit a combined 40 home runs the last two seasons […]
Ronald Guzman, Rougned Odor Out Friday Against Lefty
Texas Rangers first baseman Ronald Guzman and second baseman Rougned Odor are not in the starting lineup on Friday against Royals left-handed starting pitcher Danny Duffy. Logan Forsythe will start at first and bat sixth, while Danny Santana is hitting eighth and starting at the keystone. Forsythe and Santana will both be low-priced DFS sleepers […]
